Inband Management Product Management 2 The following inband management access methods are provided for directors and fabric switches as options: • Management through the product's open-system management server (OSMS) that communicates with an application client. The application resides on an open-systems interconnection (OSI) device attached to a director or switch port, and communicates using Fibre Channel common transport (FC-CT) protocol. Product operation, port connectivity, zoning, and fabric control are managed through a device-attached console. Refer to OSMS for information. NOTE: The Intrepid 10000 Director and SAN routers do not support out-of-band management through the OSMS. • Management through the product's fibre connection (FICON) management server (FMS) that communicates with either the: - IBM® System Automation for OS/390™ (SA OS/390™) operating system resident on a System/390® (S/390) Parallel Enterprise Server™ - Generation 5 or Generation 6. - IBM z/OS® operating system resident on an eServer™ zSeries® 800 (z800), zSeries 900 (z900), or zSeries 990 (z990) processor. The server is attached to a director or switch port, and communicates through a FICON channel. Control of connectivity and statistical product monitoring are provided through a host-attached console. Refer to FMS for information. NOTE: Sphereon 4300, 4400, and 4500 Fabric Switches and SAN routers do not support out-of-band management through FMS. Figure 2-2 illustrates inband product management.
